By the way...here's some interesting trivia regarding her newest album:

If Taylor Swift’s new album goes to #1 in the US: 

  • Swift would tie Jay-Z for the most #1 albums on the Billboard 200 chart for a solo artist - she has had 13 albums top the chart, so this would be her 14th (The Beatles are the only artist above Swift and Jay-Z with 19 #1 albums in the US); Swift would also extend her record as the female artist with the most #1 albums 
  • Swift would extend her record for the most total weeks at the top of the Billboard 200 chart for a female artist and a solo artist - her albums have spent 69 weeks at number (only The Beatles spent more weeks at #1 - 169 in total) 
  • Swift would extend her record for the most consecutive #1 albums on the Billboard 200 chart - she has had 13 consecutive #1s, this would be her 14th
  • Swift would extend her record for the most consecutive albums to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart - she has had 13 consecutive albums debut at #1, this would be her 14th #1 debut
  • Swift could also extend her record for the most albums with 500K+ copies sold in the first week and the most albums albums with 1 million copies sold in the first week - 10 of Swift’s albums have sold more than 500 000 copies in the first week (so this could potentially be her 11th 500K+ seller) and 6 of Swift’s albums have sold more than 1 000 000 copies in the first week (so this could potentially be her 7th 1 million+ seller) 

UK albums chart

If Taylor Swift’s new album goes to #1 in the UK:

  • Swift would tie Madonna as the female artist with the most #1 albums in the UK - Swift has had 11 albums top the UK albums chart, and this would be her 12th #1 album (the solo artist with the most #1 albums in the UK is Robbie Williams (14 #1s) and the overall artist with the most #1 albums are The Beatles who topped the albums chart 16 times)

Australian albums chart 

If Taylor Swift’s new album goes to #1 in Australia: 

  • Swift would break her tie with Madonna and she would become the sole holder of the record as the female artist with the most #1 albums in Australia - both Madonna and Swift have had 12 #1s in Australia, this would be Swift’s 13th #1 (the artist with the most #1 albums in Australia is Jimmy Barnes who has had 15 #1 albums)

Irish albums chart

If Taylor Swift’s new album goes to #1 in Ireland: 

Swift would break her tie with Bruce Springsteen and she would become the sole holder of the record for the most #1 albums for any artist and the most #1 albums for a solo artist - both Springsteen and Swift have had 10 #1 albums in Ireland, this would be Swift’s 11th, so she would also extend her record as the female artist with the most #1 albums
